Is there a keyboard shortcut to launch 3rd party plugins in LR5?

Looking for help creating great short cuts for express keys on Wacom Intous5 tablet.  Is there a keystroke to launch things like Nik Color Effect pro directly with photo being worked on in LR5?
I know in PS6 you can create new shortcuts and make up one for each filter -  can you do anything similar from LR5?

Hi,
you might try a macro / keyboard recorder. I use autohotkey (www.autohotkey.com). If you have selected one or more items in the grid view and press ctrl-shift-n this script:
;LR Start external editor #7
^+n::
#IfWinActive Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
Send {RButton}
Send {Down 8}
Send {Right}
Send {Down 7}
Send {Enter}
return
opens the files in the 7th external editor. Of course the number depends on your installed editors and might change with additional editors.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to launch firefox 3.6.3 with windows vista? Hot key (ctrl + alt + key) does not work.

    The hot key (ctrl + alt + key) does not work. This is in Windows Vista.

    Thank you Morbus and Cor-el, for your prompt replies. Here's what I did: I've placed the Firefox icon in the quick launch toolbar. So I right-click this firefox icon>Properties>Shortcut tab>in Shortcut Key field, add X (the word "None" changes to "ctrl + alt + X")>Apply>Okay>and that closes the dialog window.
    Then, to try the new launch short-cut, I press and hold down, in order, ctrl, then alt, then x (holding all three down) . . . and nothing launches.
    I thought this would do it! So any further thoughts would be a splendid help ---- many thanx!

  • Programatically launch 3rd party plugins

    Are there any api commands that can be used to launch a plugin?
    We are not wanting to use action manager to create and copy scripts.

    Using automation or scripts is the only way to call a plug-in programatically.

  • Universal keyboard shortcut to launch Finder?

    I know that when I have Finder selected I can press Apple key +N to launch a new Finder window, or Apple key +up arrow to lauch the Home folder.
    But is there a universal keyboard shortcut to launch any of these when I have another app selected?
    For example if I have Safari selected is there a keyboard shortcut to launch Finder instead of clicking on the desktop to deselect Safari/select Finder & then hitting Apple key +up arrow or N?
    Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3, 2.5 GB RAM, 20 Cinema Display   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    It works, thanks a lot
    The keyboard shorctut is a little awkward so I've changed it to Control +A then Return.
    Thanks again.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to move from a Finder search bar to results?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to move from a search bar in the top right of a Finder window, to the results below?

    In OS X 10.5.8's Finder, if I hit the "tab" key while the window's search bar is selected, it just cycles through the toolbar (back button, forward button, etc.).
    In 10.6.2's Finder, if I hit the "tab" key while the window's search bar is selected, it will eventually get to highlighting the files in the results list. But this only happens if I search from the universal Spotlight menu bar, and then "Show All" to launch those results in Finder.
    If I open a new Finder window, and then search from that window's search bar, the "tab" key will only get me as far as Search "This Mac" in the search filtering bar.
    I can confirm that i see exact same behavior as you in all these situations. I was going to suggest tabbing too but decided to check if it actually works first and ran into the same issues. I don't believe there is any other method to do what you want as this one does not work.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to activate / deactivate the built in mic?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to activate / deactivate the built in mic?

    Ah somewhat confusing. Your question seemed to indicate you were looking for a way to disable the mic, not that it wasn't working with some apps.
    Have you tried any of the Apple apps, Garage Band or Dictation? Do they work? If the input volume indicator under the mic in  System Preferences is moving in response to your voice then the problem is not that the mic is disabled or muted, the sound is getting into the system.
    Does the Input Volume move while you have one of the non-working apps opened? Have you installed any 3rd party sound apps or kernel extensions?
    Are the mic settings in Audio MIDI setup 44100.0 HZ and 2ch-24 bit?
    I would start by seeing if the mike works with one of the apps I mentioned above or download something like Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder to test it out.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut in OS 10.6 for "open folder window" and "close folder window"?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut in OS 10.6 for "open folder window" and "close folder window"?  I have a hand condition at the moment that makes it painful to mouse the cursor over to the arrow and click it (for instance, in the sidebars for Finder or iTunes) to open or close a folder.  If anyone knows a keyboard shortcut for this, I'd really appreciate it--thanks!

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N.

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N. This shortcut now opens a Tab with the home page instead of duplicating the web page I'm on.

    Firefox has always opened new tabs in a blank page, so I'm guessing that the way you had it before was added by an extension.
    If you to to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions, are there any extensions disabled?
    In any case, you can still do this with a mouse shortcut. Hold down the Ctrl key as you drag a tab to an empty area on the tab bar.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the previous page in a new tab that is right next to the current tab?

    Let's say I'm currently on page X, and the previous page I came from was page Y. Is there a keyboard shortcut to open page Y in a new tab right next to the tab with page X?
    Currently my only solution is to hold down cmd (for mac) and click the back arrow button, but again, I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut. I know CTRL + T opens up the same page in a tab right next to the current one, but I have to wait for it to load then press backspace to go back one page.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to open bins in the project pane?

    Hi there!
    Quick question: Is there a keyboard shortcut that allows you to open a bin in Premiere Pro's project panel?
    I know I can just double-click it, but I like sticking to my keyboard as much as possible. If there's any default keyboard shortcut or configurable one, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance!
    Edit: Version - Most up to date CC.

    Option clicking any bin twirl down will open all bins. Otherwise, as shooternz noted, the shortcut wouldn't know which bin you wanted to open, so it's not really possible with some kind of clicking.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to mirror a macbook air on a VGA projector?

    I know I can mirror displays by going through the system preferences then displays.
    But I would like to be able to swith from mirroring to not mirroring quickly, without going through the system preferences every time.  Is there a keyboard shortcut?

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to select and deselect items?

    Using the mouse or trackpad to position the cursor over the checkbox to select dozens of tracks in my library is tedious. Is there a keyboard shortcut that will allow me to use the arrow keys to move up or down to select items?

    Jon,
    On Windows, it's the "/" key. Try Googling "lightroom keyboard shortcuts" and going to the Victoria Bampton site. She has a .pdf file with a complete list.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to "Pin as App Tab"?

    Sometimes (mainly with a touchpad) moving the mouse cursor to the tab, right-clicking and choosing "Pin as App Tab" is a lot of work compared to just using a keyboard shortcut. Is there a keyboard shortcut to do this?

    It is a context menu entry and such entries require to right-click in a specific place to open that context menu. <br />Such entries can never have a shortcut key.
    You can't set focus to the tab bar easily. Ctrl +K followed by one or more tab key presses should focus the tab bar.<br />
    Then you can press the context menu key at the right side of the space bar to open the context menu and press P to pin the current tab.
